Getting Ready For The Week
This Week's Focus:
God doesn’t just rescue us; He transforms us. In Exodus 34, after Israel’s failure with the golden calf, God renews His covenant and reveals His glory to Moses.
This week, we’ll explore how God’s presence changes us from the inside out and calls us to live with unveiled faces, fully reflecting His glory in daily life.

Getting Started This Week
By the time we reach Exodus 34, Israel has experienced failure and rebellion. Moses intercedes for the people, and God responds not with abandonment but with mercy and restoration.
Moses’ face shone because he had spent time with God. Transformation is rarely instant — it happens gradually as we remain close to Him. The Spirit works in our hearts, changing us from the inside out.
Like Israel, we may have been rescued from past mistakes, sin, or struggles — but God’s goal is deeper: to make us reflect His glory, “from glory to glory” (2 Corinthians 3:18).
This week, we’ll see that God’s presence not only restores but also empowers us to live fully in Him.
